we might broke something here since I haven't tested this in quite a
while. Mainly because I don't care so much anymore. Having these kind of
test setups are nasty.

The USB part can be an issue if you use the SCO support of the hci_usb
driver. Load the driver with isoc=0 to disable it. The ISOC frames for
the SCO support consume to much USB bandwidth.
